Rankings are based on wins, and tie-breakers are resolved by the IQA’s S.W.I.M. (Snitch When It Matters) point differential system. SWIM is a regular point differential that also takes into account the point in the match at which the snitch was grabbed, i.e. whether the grabbing team was down or up when they caught the snitch.

The algorithm for SWIM is here:

by parts[IF(Snitch,YES,P<30;P+30), OR IF(Snitch,NO,P=-inf->inf;P), ORIF(Snitch,Yes,P>30;P+30*e^(-0.033(P-20)))]

 

If you wish to contest any scores or results, please email worldcup@internationalquidditch.org. No other forms of contest will be considered.

Umm… Why isn’t UVM (University of Vermont) Quidditch on the list AT ALL?? shouldn’t we at least be ranked, even if it is last?

Hey Hilary – Sorry, somehow UVM got bumped off the list and a team from the D2 list got inserted (Hendrix) when we uploaded it to the site. We’ve since corrected it – you guys finished at 55th place.

The rest of the teams between 42nd and 55th place will notice that they have moved up a spot.
